I have something of a special request
to ask. In particular of you, Rex. |
| 2 |
|
qst105401_msg0002 |
84 |
Huh, you're asking me? Not Zeke? |
| 3 |
|
qst105401_msg0003 |
84 |
Correct. You are the Aegis's Driver
first and foremost, but you are also
a salvager, are you not? |
| 4 |
|
qst105401_msg0004 |
84 |
Oh, yeah. Up until a little while ago,
that's how I made my living. |
| 5 |
|
qst105401_msg0005 |
84 |
It so happens I used to dabble in the
salvaging business a little myself back
in the day. |
| 6 |
|
qst105401_msg0006 |
84 |
You were a salvager, Your Majesty?! |
| 7 |
|
qst105401_msg0007 |
84 |
I'd had enough of the interminable
drudgery of the nobility. I decided it
was time to discover the real world. |
| 8 |
|
qst105401_msg0008 |
84 |
So I can't exactly fault Zeke for
his own actions, haha... |
| 9 |
|
qst105401_msg0009 |
84 |
I'd started salvaging on a whim. Yet
before I knew it, I was desperate to get
my hands on treasures of legend. |
| 10 |
|
qst105401_msg0010 |
84 |
Cool. I'd never have guessed. |
| 11 |
|
qst105401_msg0011 |
84 |
So, did you find any legendary
treasure? |
| 12 |
|
qst105401_msg0012 |
84 |
I'm afraid not. But I did manage to
pinpoint the location of some. |
| 13 |
|
qst105401_msg0013 |
84 |
We were working on designs for a
machine we could use to winch it up. |
| 14 |
|
qst105401_msg0014 |
84 |
But the sudden passing of my father
brought an end to all that... |
| 15 |
|
qst105401_msg0015 |
84 |
Since then, I haven't had the time for
treasure hunting, let alone salvaging. |
| 16 |
|
qst105401_msg0016 |
84 |
Oh... Um, so why are you telling
me all this? |
| 17 |
|
qst105401_msg0017 |
84 |
Because, well... Because I thought
it was about time I started enjoying
life again. |
| 18 |
|
qst105401_msg0018 |
84 |
I'd like you to retrieve the treasure
I located all those years ago for me. |
| 19 |
|
qst105401_msg0019 |
84 |
I would do it myself, but these old
bones are far past the age for
reckless gallivanting. |
| 20 |
|
qst105401_msg0020 |
84 |
If you could gather the treasure and
put it on display in this very room,
I would be truly grateful. |
| 21 |
|
qst105401_msg0021 |
84 |
Well, Your Majesty, you definitely
picked the right guy for the job.
It'd be my pleasure! |
| 22 |
|
qst105401_msg0022 |
84 |
Oh, splendid! |
| 23 |
|
qst105401_msg0023 |
84 |
Then let me get to the point.
There are, in total, four treasures
I'd like for you to retrieve. |
| 24 |
|
qst105401_msg0024 |
84 |
The first is the Hammershead in
Temperantia. |
| 25 |
|
qst105401_msg0025 |
84 |
If you use the best quality cylinders in
certain weather conditions, you'll find
the treasure, I believe. |
| 26 |
|
qst105401_msg0026 |
84 |
The second, the Golden Sunstone,
lies in the Land of Morytha. |
| 27 |
|
qst105401_msg0027 |
84 |
As I understand it, a salvager attempted
to retrieve it from the Cliffs of Morytha,
but fumbled, and it sank deep. |
| 28 |
|
qst105401_msg0028 |
84 |
And then there's the Calamity Puzzle...
I hear a Nopon in Argentum finally
got his little wings on it. |
| 29 |
|
qst105401_msg0029 |
84 |
So I suppose that one is less about
salvaging and more bartering. |
| 30 |
|
qst105401_msg0030 |
84 |
And finally, the Orbital Skyreader, at a
Salvage Point in Spirit Crucible Elpys. |
| 31 |
|
qst105401_msg0031 |
84 |
I didn't even know there was a
Salvage Point in Elpys! |
| 32 |
|
qst105401_msg0032 |
84 |
Indeed, it is not easy to spot. |
| 33 |
|
qst105401_msg0033 |
84 |
It seems like a void of nothingness,
doesn't it? But in actual fact, it adjoins
the Cloud Sea in a number of places. |
| 34 |
|
qst105401_msg0034 |
84 |
I'm certain that we'll find what we're
looking for here, but the precise spot
escapes me... |
| 35 |
|
qst105401_msg0035 |
84 |
I suppose we ought to try looking
in a few different locations! |
| 36 |
|
qst105401_msg0036 |
84 |
I'm sorry to be asking so much of you,
my boy. |
| 37 |
|
qst105401_msg0037 |
84 |
Back when I was a child, there wasn't a
salvager in Alrest who didn't dream of
claiming those treasures for their own. |
| 38 |
|
qst105401_msg0038 |
84 |
Whosoever found all four would be
renowned for generations to come
as the salvager among salvagers! |
| 39 |
|
qst105401_msg0039 |
84 |
And they would have bestowed upon
them the title Salvager Supreme! |
| 40 |
|
qst105401_msg0040 |
84 |
Once you find them, I'd like you
to place them on the altars
behind me. |
| 41 |
|
qst105401_msg0041 |
84 |
Wow, altars! You've already
thought this far ahead? |
| 42 |
|
qst105401_msg0042 |
84 |
Haha... Let's just say anticipation
is a keen motivator. |
| 43 |
|
qst105401_msg0043 |
84 |
Well, my boy, best of luck. |
| 44 |
|
qst105401_msg0101 |
84 |
There's something I'd like to ask Rex.
May I talk with him for a moment? |
